Helpful Guide Book

This book does a very good job of helping you understand body language. It blends the theory behind body language with numerous pictures and practical explanations for observing and interpreting people's non-verbal behavior. This book does what the title promises, and gives us a look into the potential that Limited Liability Companies and Limited Partnerships hold for business owners. In addition, the book is well-organized, and the cases he develops to illustrate his points are easy to follow and tie in well with their respective topics. Highly recommended.

Very insightful!

I really enjoyed this book. It was filled with great insight on how the body responds to our outside environment and innermost feelings. It was very insightful the way the author gave physiological reasoning behind human behavior. Highly recommended.

Rather boring and rather General

It’s hard to believe I listened trough the whole book voluntarily and paying for it at the same time. It is a very monotone book and that just naturally shuts my brain down.

Great listen

This book is a very educational listen for negotiation as like a spy thinks. It will open your eyes in a very meaningful way to the vital subject of nonverbal communication. As you learn more about what people are really saying, it will improve all of your interpersonal relationships, and maybe help you communicate your true feelings more accurately as well.

Worth the time, maybe not the money

Interesting read but I found the author a little braggy about being in the CIA. I found the science a little challenging to believe because the author is not credentialed for such explanations. There were a few interesting techniques but not enough tangible “how to’s” for me.

Fantastic!

Though the book provide certain clues and behaviors that may indicate certain attitudes from people interacting with you, the author focus most of his attention on stressful situations, interviews and ways to detect deceptive speeches.

Practical ideas

This is well explained and an excellent starter on persuasion and negotiation. I found myself being more observant and aware of my audience - one of the best and most practical books on engaging people.

Effective learning

Extremely interesting and eye-opening. If you deal with people on a regular basis for your work you will really appreciate his pointers to understand what people are really thinking.

more stories

Book would have been more interesting with the addition of more of his real life experiences & encounters.

Very interesting

Awesome listen! I think it teaches you very valuable information in order to protect yourself in many situations. It's the most simplest things that we don't think of to watch out for that we need to know! Very interesting & I highly recommend to anyone!!!
